Honeywell Creates ISV Partner Program for Scanning and Mobility Solutions


Benefits and support offered for qualified independent software vendors

BLACKWOOD, N.J. - April 17, 2009 - Honeywell (NYSE: HON) today announced the launch of an independent software vendor (ISV) partner program to aid in the development and promotion of software operating in conjunction with the full line of Honeywell Scanning & Mobility (HSM) products. The new ISV program is designed to enhance the level of support provided to ISVs and to stimulate increased demand for software solutions.

"Honeywell's goal in partnering with ISVs is to contribute to the creation of integrated solutions that better meet the needs of our customers," said Mark Bunney, director of global alliances at Honeywell. "We created this program to form long-term strategic connections with ISVs and support them in areas that truly add value. We believe in investing in relationships with ISVs, and it's these mutually beneficial relationships that will help drive success in key markets including retail, healthcare and transportation and logistics."

The program has two main levels of participation designed to meet the specific needs of ISVs. Depending on the level of participation, ISVs will receive benefits such as technical support, discounted or free demo units, web-based or on-site training, and marketing materials and funding to drive increased visibility.

"We're excited to be a part of Honeywell's new ISV partner program," said David Gosman, CEO of pcAmerica, a vendor of retail and restaurant point-of-sale solutions. "We've been working with Honeywell for some time now, and we know the strength and reliability of the company. Participating in this program will enhance the value we provide our customers and will lead to additional product development opportunities."

"Participation in the ISV partner program will allow us to work closely with Honeywell in the development and integration of new value-added solutions. We look forward to reaching new customers and achieving greater success," said Dan Barry, CEO of Countermind, a mobile business software provider.
